Churches in Cape Town and Slavery

Saturday, 09 February 2019

As a gathering of varying age groups, we ventured into Cape Town's CBD where various churches are closely situated. At most of these landmarks, the dark history of slavery in the Cape is at times only faintly remembered as new business developments are constructed on top of or all around key landmarks.

We are currently gathering feedback and reflection from those who attended. Some of these reflections will be shared at church and here on this web page.

Transport in Cape Town

Our next retreat/pilgrimage/spiritual journey focused on the justice issues around our city’s transportation situation. We will be seeking Jesus for what kingdom coming could look like in the taxis and trains of Pinelands and beyond.
